if you are interested in beta testing Cubase iC Pro on Android, please send me a private message.

Thank you very much for your interest in joining the Beta Phase of Cubase iC Pro... your support is vastly appreciated!

In the last days we have received bunches of applications and due to the high amount of enquires we have to blow the whistle now. Please don't send any further applications. Unfortunately we can't include any more testers into the Beta Program.

Thanks again for your support...We hope you will enjoy our first Android release!

So is there now an estimation on when this app will be available then?

I got the beta application form...But I am not at all sure how I am supposed to fill it in and return it...

Am I supposed to download the zip containing the pdf files, print them out, fill them out, then scan them, then encode them to pdf file again, zip them and then email them back to Steinberg?

Or am I missing something here and there is a much easier way?? If there is no easier way, that is kind of bizarre...

Would annotating the pdf files do? I use foxit reader and it doesn't seem to have the ability to annotate...and I am loath to install adobe bloatware...Might have to pass on my beta participation due to the application process being such a seeming pain.

Steinberg, even if the news is bad.... TELL US SOMETHING! ANYTHING! PLEEEEEASE

Maybe they're too embarrassed. They have lost an awful lot of credibility over this. And by the time they're done with the Android version (IF they ever finish it...), most people will have shifted to Windows tablets, which are far far more capable than anything Android or iOS.

I saw a demo of the new Dell Venue 8 Pro, which will become available at the end of the month. I was MIGHTILY impressed. The quad-core Bay Trail is phenomenal, finally a CPU that's light, portable, very good battery performance and yet very very capable (it simply crushes any ARM chip.) In fact that thing has the power of an i3 laptop and it runs every Windows application. Price: $299. Unbelievable... I'll definitely buy one.

.

yep im one of those people , android is dead in the water now , it's all about win tablets , I think leaving the idea for a year and expect technology to stand still is I bit silly

r u serious? Android is hugely successful. last time i checked microsoft was way behind. who the hell has a windows phone or a win tablet?

Yes I am serious , this isn't about phones this is about a system the will allow an easy upgrade of apps further down the road and the win tablets are the way forward . Ipad for you mac pro - win tablet for you i7 , android is now the fish out of water in this game. Steinberg missed the boat on this .

Yes, but I'm pretty sure that things are going to change soon. Remember what we wanted when the iPad was introduced: laptop power in a smaller, lighter, more portable form factor. Since at that time it was an impossible feat, basically Apple went about a decade in the past with much inferior computing power and put in a PHONE operating system. Android was developed with the same concept in mind. Which means that none of these OS's can develop much more than they've already done. Now that 8-inch Win 8.1 tablets with Bay Trail are finally available (end of this month), the old dream of having a REAL computer in one hand is finally coming true and I'm pretty sure that sooner or later people will realize how primitive iOS and Android are compared to a fully-functional OS like Windows. Heck, even simple file management on iOS and Android is a hassle. Again, because they are PHONE operating systems and they were never meant to do anything harder than social media, video playing, e-book reading, email etc.

A Bay Trail tablet can actually run Cubase 7. What other tablet can do that? (I mean aside from i5 tablets, of course, but those will cost substantially more.)
